How about 3 mountains in 3 days. It's said that they can only be done with a 4x4. We tried to prove otherwise.
Yes, we still needed to get to the Alps to start the adventure.
First on the list Col du Parpailon, famous amongst 4x4's. Less famous amongst shiboxes and there are multiple reasons why it is like that. We found out the hard way and probably the more adventurous way.
After this epic adventure the Wartburg was a bit to battered to move to the next peak. We made camp at an abadoned field and had some fun before heading to the next mountain on the border with Italy.
Col du Sommelier is another mountain peak heading to just 3000 meters in the Alps. Also only recommended by 4x4's. We proved a Lada is almost 4x4 worthy.
In the evening we slept in the Lada at the famous Garda lake in Italy. The next day before driving straight to Belgium, we went to visit an abandoned NATO radar station.
Arriving monday morning around 7 ish we looked back at an amazing shitbox weekend.
